In the First match, player A picks first and bans a faction for the first match.
The next game player B picks first and bans.
In an ace match both players ban before picking.
Player A bans first, player B picks first.
You’re only allowed to pick each faction once.

Bans only last 1 match.

So for Example:Match 1: Player A picks Vampire Counts and bans High Elves.
Player B picks Skaven. (He cannot pick High Elves [BANNED]).

Match 2: Player B picks High Elves (the High Elves ban from match 1
does not carry over to match 2) and bans Lizardmen. Player A picks Dwarfs.
(He cannot pick Lizardmen [BANNED] or Vampire Counts [1st PICKED FACTION]).

Running around with your troops without making any attack (no one from your units don't make any damage to enemy) is prohibited

5. Violations and game-crash

If rules of red line are violated, you should inform the enemy about violation and give him time to move away units from red line. If he refuses to do this, then he get TD in this battle (the proof in this case will be the replay of this battle (screenshot of the chat is also can be useful)).

Game crash at early stage of the game, when none of the players have a clear advantage leads to replay of the battle with the same units roster (If both players agree, they can change rosters).
After third game crash due to the fault of one and the same player during one match - he's get TD.
